Cliff Hanger: mother love. (From my Uncle Vic.)

Clinging on for dear life to the side of a vertical cliff, the tiny lion cub cries out pitifully for help. 

His mother arrives at the edge of the precipice with three other lionesses and a male. The females start to clamber down together but turn back daunted by the sheer drop. 
Eventually one single factor determines which of them will risk her life to save the youngster – motherly love. 

Motherly love: The mother gives her son a lick to say that all is well in the pride following the drama.
HOW AWESOME IS THIS?   

Thanks Margaret
